Abstract—The construction industry has an accident rate higher than the average of all industries due to the industry’s poor performance in occupational safety and health. Hebei Jintao Security Equipment Technology Co. (Hebei Jintao) is a construction firm located in Hebei province of China. In 2018, Hebei Jintao suffered the loss of a construction worker due to falling from a ladder. The company has since then focused on increasing the safety of its employees. This study focuses on the level of implementation of the safety protocols of the company to determine the current state of safety for targeted improvement. To determine the level of implementation a questionnaire was adapted and modified from K. Sai Dines , while data from supervisors and foremen were gathered using an interview. The data was then analyzed using a 4-point Likert Scale. Data showed that the level of implementation for safety protocols that concerned the 5 most common causes of accidents in the construction in Hebei Jintao ranged from high to very high. It could be concluded that the managers of Hebei Jintao view expenditure as one of the major difficulties in the implementation of safety protocols in the worksite. Alongside this, obsolete equipment, safety awareness of workers, and the unavailability of a proper garbage disposal schedule are the other difficulties that the managers of Hebei Jintao face.
